I am having the same issue, with multiple submission rejections.
I tried going from the simplified AMT calculation to non-simplified. (I really should be using simplified since that's the method I've used in the past.) While this change does in fact add country names to Part I of the 1116AMT forms, it also changes the numbers that come out of the forms. For both my COPY1 (general income) and COPY2 (passive income) percentages in line Part III line 19 change. And in the case of COPY1 (general income) the amount of AMT foreign tax credit utilized also changes (increases a bit). Consequently the amount of AMT foreign tax credit carried forward and available for future years also changes (decreases a bit).
This, as you can imagine, makes me nervous. It's not just a change in name (from simplified to non-simplified method), it's also a change in calculations and outcomes. Given that it's very clear that the simplified method should be used I'd rather not switch to the non-simplified method just to get my e-filing through.
Come on, TurboTax, get this issue fixed please so that all of us (esp. expats) can e-file without sacrificing correctness of our returns! Thanks!
